(《》)

Just when Mr. Qin thought that he was probably a little talented and felt sorry for his poor and short-sighted behavior, Ning Yi had already entered Yushan Academy in the early morning sunlight and began to prepare for a group of children studying "The Analects of Confucius" with a group of children throughout the morning.

Yushan Academy is not open in a place called Yushan. This is a private school run by Sujia. Of course, it will also accept outsiders who have some connections. However, the school is not big, mainly because there are not many people coming to study. Yushan is the name of a mountain in the hometown of Su family.

Yushan Academy is located on a street not far from the Su Mansion. It is not a street with dense shops, so the environment is quite quiet. It is surrounded by gray tiles and white walls, and a small bamboo forest. If you ask a sign of "Yushan Academy" written by a great scholar to hang it up, it still has a bit of a book-like atmosphere.

There are currently 49 students and seven teachers in the academy, including Su Chonghua, the director of the academy. In terms of proportion, the teaching staff is strong. Su Chonghua himself is a member of the Su family. He passed the imperial examination in his early years and served as an official for several years. Unfortunately, he has made no achievements. There are even rumors that he has committed any incidents. There are also two old people hired with high salaries with experience as an official. In addition to teachers and students, there are also chefs, errands and other subordinates.

The Su family spent a lot of effort on this academy. Unfortunately, these teachers were not very reliable, or these students happened to be dull in qualifications and the academy had never achieved any results. Some of the students trained before mostly entered the Su family's shop after they found that the imperial examination was hopeless, so the nature of this academy looked more like a technical college. If there was a real way for children to take the imperial examination to become officials in the family, then they would probably let their children transfer to a better college before they were twelve years old.

Ning Yi has been teaching here for three days. Su Chonghua treats him well and does not make things difficult for him because he is a married man. After working hard in society for a long time, he has become a savage. There is no need to do such boring things. Considering that Ning Yi actually has no talent to learn - everyone says so - he taught more than ten children who have just started. There are 16 children in total, between the ages of six and twelve. Among them, there are even two girls with braids, who are relatives of the Su family, so they can read some words. After the previous teacher taught the Book of Filial Piety, he began to teach the Analects of Confucius. Ning Yi taught them one morning and a little relaxed in the afternoon, rituals, music, archery, monarchy, and arithmetics, mainly mathology, and the rest depends on the teacher's mood and ability.

If you are in a better and more formal school, these things will be more standardized and more refined, but Yushan Academy obviously does not have this condition. As for Ning Yi, teaching the Analects of Confucius is actually quite simple. Although he cannot memorize the Analects of Confucius or say something about where a sentence is, but if you only ask for reading and giving a simple explanation, it is really easy. Any modern person with high school education may take some time to give a plausible explanation to the Analects of Confucius, of course, in vernacular.

Although in ancient times, the real great scholars studied the Four Books and Five Classics quite profoundly, and those who were so profound were so profound. Perhaps the ancient essays written by a famous prostitute could make modern professors ashamed. However, most scholars did not have the opportunity to receive too profound education. They might not even find a book of Mencius after reading the Analects of Confucius, but the minimum standard for teachers is very simple. To put it bluntly, just be able to teach people to read. Ning Yi's ex was like this. He taught a group of children to read with their heads shaking their heads. When they were excited, they would give the most basic explanation of the meaning in the text. After a while, students were required to recite strictly or write a paragraph. This was the exam, and they could not get the test, and the thug board was thrust.

Things are very simple! Ning Yi didn't plan to modify too much. In the previous hour, he asked a group of students to shaking their heads and recite the Analects of Confucius. In fact, Ning Yi felt very painful for reading for two hours. However, these children were used to it. In the next two hours, Ning Yi started to explain the content of an article in the first half, and then cited the words and talked casually, telling some stories and some practical things, which could be regarded as relaxing the children.

These children are easy to teach. Although it took only three days, Ning Yi could clearly feel the feeling of being a teacher in the classroom. The children now have no personality at all. Children who don’t show off their personality are the cutest. They cherish the opportunity to study, are not naughty or second-grade. If something happens, you will take it for granted. It is simply a paradise for teachers. Ning Yi teaches very comfortably. However, for only three days, the children are extremely satisfied with telling some scriptures and stories every day. Ning Yi doesn’t even need to prepare lesson plans or something to tell these things. Just walk casually.

On this day, I began to explain the passage of the Analects of Confucius about "richness and honor are what people want..." from the method of obtaining wealth to the way of business, and there are some statements and explanations such as "a gentleman loves money and takes it with the way". Ning Yi did this in his previous life. Regardless of ancient Chinese, if he simply expressed his feelings, it would be enough to teach doctoral students in modern universities. But in front of him was a group of children under twelve years old. He said a few words casually and he would not say more. He just gave a few small examples to make fun of it. Then he talked about the six boats of the Puyuan Poetry Club, and then talked about the Battle of Red Cliffs, and began to tell the story of Red Cliffs to a group of children.

The main story about the Three Kingdoms in the past is Chen Shou's "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Ning Yi has never read it. It tells the routine of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Modern and has been polished by various literary works. It is full of fun and yy-like. From Cao Cao's army of 800,000 to Zhou Yu, he went south to fight Huang Gai, and took a series of boats and borrowed arrows from straw boats. A group of children who had never heard many stories on weekdays were blushing and excited, and he spoke from time to time: "Sir, sir, what's next..." The children were quiet until halfway through speaking, because the mountain leader Su Chonghua was walking to the classroom, standing there with his hands on his back, with expressionless faces on his face, but even so, it could not change the excited expression on the faces of the children.

Since Ning Yi has already said it, he will naturally not be distracted by this little thing. He will continue to talk all the way. He only finished talking about the fire-burning series of boats when it was almost noon. Su Chonghua kept standing outside and listening, and it was difficult to tell what kind of expression he was. After Ning Yi finished speaking the story, he wrote a favorite song by Du Mu on the rice paper:

The halberd is broken and the sand has not been removed, and it will be washed and recognized by the previous dynasty.

The east wind does not go with Zhou Lang, and the bronze bird spring locks the two Qiaos.

There is no blackboard for teaching, so it is very inconvenient to write things. Ning Yi now has a bit of love for the career of teachers. While writing, he thought that he should "invent" a whiteboard or something. Writing with a charcoal pen is better than a sand table. After he finished writing, a group of students were busy copying it on paper. Walking out the door, Su Chonghua greeted him, and a smile appeared on his face without expression.

"The nephew Gao Cai has conducted in-depth research on the history of the Three Kingdoms, Wei and Jin Dynasties. Is the story just now taken from Chen Shou's Three Kingdoms?"

If Mr. Qin was here, he would have to scold Ning Yi a few words, saying that he was making nonsense and misleading his children. In fact, the real Three Kingdoms is not so exciting. For example, the section on the straw boat borrowed an arrow. In fact, Sun Quan drove the boat out and was shot by arrows. There were too many arrows on one side of the hull, and almost overturned. So Sun Quan ordered the boat to turn around and bear the arrows on the other side, so that the hull could balance and leave. Ning Yi had only watched the TV series of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Su Chonghua had never watched the Three Kingdoms. He just listened to the story told by Ning Yi as a story book later. It was enjoyable. At this time, he came to praise him for his knowledgeable knowledge and the story was fascinating.

However, after a few praises, he also pointed out indirectly, and didn't be so polite to these students. If Ning Yi was already an old peddler in his fifties and sixties at this time, the other party would probably not say this, but he seemed to be in his early twenties and had few hairs on his mouth, so he needed to be stricter to these children in order to show his majesty of the teacher. Obviously, he was not satisfied with Ning Yi's lecture on the Three Kingdoms in the "Analects of Confucius" class, especially in such vivid manner, he was like a teahouse storyteller. Ning Yi nodded and was humble and respectful, and turned his head and just pretended that he had never heard of it.

Then Su Chonghua invited him to have lunch at the academy. Generally speaking, ordinary small households eat two meals a day, and some can't afford it. However, the Su family is rich and adds an extra lunch, but it's not regular, and sometimes uses pastries instead. Ning Yi politely rejected the other party's invitation, went home to change clothes, and then gave it to Xiaochan, preparing to wash it and return it to Mr. Qin, but he didn't tell her about the matter in the river, so that she would not make a fuss about finding a bunch of medicine for herself. During the days of Ning Yi's class in the academy, Xiaochan has not followed him at any time, and has freed up to deal with other things in the morning.

In the afternoon, he went to play chess by the Qinhuai River again. In fact, Mr. Qin is also a strange man. Ning Yi used to think that he had been an official, and when he went to the other party's house this morning, he became more convinced of this understanding. Many of the styles and decorations in the house could not be that ordinary people could have. In addition to his conversation and vision, it was really strange that such people actually went to the river to set up chess stalls every day.

When I came here today, another old man had already played chess with Mr. Qin. The old man's surname was Kang, and he was about the same age as Mr. Qin. He was from a wealthy family. He dressed brilliantly when he went out. He led two servants and two maids to the way. This guy looked stern and had a mean mouth, but his chess skills were very high. Every time he saw Ning Yi criticizing his chess path for being "absolutely obscene", "no gentleman's style", "How could he be so stubborn", "You are hateful", "You are a young man", he turned his head and absorbed this chess path, and after a little modification, he fought with Mr. Qin. In fact, Mr. Qin had a higher number than him, and he absorbed a new idea and changed it to no aura.

Ning Yi has also seen many people here, including ordinary people, children who have not received much education or who have received some education but are still rigid in their thoughts. Whether it is pedantic or honest, his vision and thinking are indeed not as flexible as modern people, but at the top, he is not worse than modern people. For example, Mr. Qin, who did not say anything, was naturally digesting the things he thought were novel and thinking about the ideas and principles in it. The old man surnamed Kang was full of courtesy, righteousness, integrity, shame, benevolence, righteousness, and morality, but he was still cruel and ruthless when playing chess. Of course, if it weren't for Mr. Qin and others, he might not be able to see his cruelty. He was just worse than Mr. Qin, and he was still much higher than ordinary people.

Mr. Qin and several chess friends have been studying Ning Yi's chess path recently. After all, they suddenly saw these novel tricks, which are of value for research. Ning Yi does not have much humility towards the old man. Sometimes he ignores Mr. Kang's beard and glares at him, and sometimes he says a few words to him: "You old man say one thing and do another, you are not a good person." "If you dare to do this chess, you go down! Go down and try it!" On weekdays, there are probably no juniors who dare to talk back to Mr. Kang. The two of them had a small argument at the chess stall. Mr. Qin smiled beside him. If Mr. Kang played against him, he would say, "Liheng said it makes sense." If the opponent was Ning Yi, he would help condemn Ning Yi's chess game together.

However, even if the argument arises, it is nothing to be malice. Mr. Kang initially treated Ning Yi as an ignorant junior, and then he realized that this guy was indeed a person who could be an opponent, and the other party naturally did not put himself in the position of a junior. No matter what, Mr. Kang always brought a pot of good tea after he came over. He asked the servant to bring his own tea set, tea leaves and water, and the maid brewed it on the table at the tea stall next to him. Ning Yi was not polite in the past, so he took a cup, took a stool and sat next to the chessboard, and took a sip of tea after a moment: "Oh, Mr. Kang is going to lose."

The old man was calculating chess in his heart and raised his eyebrows: "You hairless boy know what you win or lose, and you dare to say such things when you drink my tea... Humph, I already have a trick..."

He raised his hand to make a move, Ning Yi coughed lightly, and the old man's hand stopped immediately, glanced suspiciously and then took it back. Ning Yi took another sip of tea: "This cup of tea is worth so much... Well, what kind of tea is this?"

"A ignorant boy is really a waste of resources. Have you ever heard of Zisun?"

Mr. Qin was also tasting tea there, and then smiled and said, "Guzhu Zishang, good tea, but it was a pity to cook on the street at this time. If he had known that he would bring this tea here today, this game of chess should have been going home."

Mr. Kang didn't care. At this time, he finally thought about it and reached out to put the chess piece: "Tea is for drinking. Everyone is full of chess and has like-mindedness, so he drank the tea together. This is the most important thing. Tea is just a dead thing, and it is born to please you and me. You and I think it is worth it. Why cherish it?"

"Old Kang said something quite arrogantly, like a big man."

"What a big man, I..."

"You lost, this old man."

"Well……"

Ning Yi patted his shoulder and stood up with a smile. At this time, the scenery by the Qinhuai River was pleasant. He walked away with a teacup. Qin Lao was already smiling and making a move. Kang Lao said, "How can this be..."

"Haha, I saw that you brought good tea today by Ming Gong. I wanted to get away with it and secretly play it, but these words were so arrogant. It was just that gentlemen should be together. I don't want to be pretentious anymore, hahahaha..."

Mr. Kang was obviously dissatisfied with bringing tea and losing chess, but he lost no matter what, and he still recognized it. He called Ning Yi over and everyone made a review of the game, and then Mr. Kang and Mr. Qin were still playing. During this period, Mr. Qin talked about the interesting story of Ning Yi being slapped in the face in order to save people in the morning. Ning Yi was inevitably mocked by Mr. Kang in gloatingly. Then, the two old men talked about the recent invasion of the Liao people in the north.

The sun was still bright in late autumn, but in the afternoon, the wind blew on the Qinhuai River. After the game of chess, it was already too late, so everyone went home.
